Description:

From the BBC World Service: Japan is facing a rice emergency. Prices are soaring, supplies are tight, and it's already cost one government minister his job. So what's going on? It's a mix of bad weather, fewer rice-farming households, and booming demand from tourism and dining out. We'll unpack.
